Answer:

The weight of the box is 22.38 N.

Explanation:

The weight (W) of the mass is given by:

$W = mg$

Where:

m: is the mass of the box = 6.0 kg

$g_{m}$ : is the acceleration due to gravity of mars

Since the acceleration due to the gravity of mars is 0.38 times that on Earth we have:

$g_{m} = 0.38g_{E} = 0.38*9.81 m/s^{2} = 3.73 m/s^{2}$

Hence, the weight of the mass is:

$W = mg = 6.0 kg*3.73 m/s^{2} = 22.38 N$

Therefore, the weight of the box is 22.38 N.

I hope it helps you!

An electron with a speed of 1.2 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 5.2 × 10-16 N acts

Aliun [14]

Answer: 0.642mm

Explanation: F= force = 5.2×10^-16 N,

v = velocity of electron = 1.2×10^7 m/s,

m = mass of electron = 9.11×10^-31 kg.

We will assume the motion of the object to be of a constant acceleration, hence newton's laws of motion is applicable.

Recall that f = ma.

Where a = acceleration

This acceleration of vertical because it occurred when the object deflected.

5.2×10^-16 = 9.11×10^-31 (ay)

ay = 5.2×10^-16 / 9.11×10^-31

ay = 5.71×10^14 m/s²

For the horizontal motion, x = vt

Where x = horizontal distance = 0.019m and v is the velocity = 1.2×10^7 m/s,

By substituting the parameters, we have that

0.019 = 1.27×10^7 × t

t = 0.019 / 1.27 × 10^7

t = 1.5×10^-9 s

The vertical distance (y) is gotten by using the formulae below

y = ut + at²/2

but u = 0

y = at²/2

y = 5.71×10^14 × (1.5×10^-9)²/2

y = 0.00128475/2

y = 0.000642m = 0.642mm

a certain projetor uses a concave mirror for projecting an object's image on a screen .it produces on image that is 4 times bigg

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

f = 1 m

Explanation:

The magnification of the lens is given by the formula:

$M = \frac{q}{p}$

where,

M = Magnification = 4

q = image distance = 5 m

p = object distance = ?

Therefore,

$4 = \frac{5\ m}{p}\\\\p = \frac{5\ m}{4}\\\\p = 1.25\ m$

Now using thin lens formula:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{1.25\ m}+\frac{1}{5\ m}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = 1\ m^{-1}\\\\$

What happens to a current when the electric field in the wire increase

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

If the voltage is increased then the electric field is higher, and electron velocity (average) is proportional to this field. Then you have an increase in speed. And current is total charge passing per time unit, so current is proportional to velocity value of charge (and to voltage in resistors and wire).
